Comment #2 on issue 256 by allbery.b: Xmonad should start programs in the workspace they were launched http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=256 X11 makes this difficult if not impossible for arbitrary programs. As mentioned above you can do it with a ManageHook; also some window manager/menu combinations may tell the window manager to place the next window that is created (or the next one with a given title) in a specific workspace, but this is highly unreliable. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
